Project Hope - A Garden of Hope

I was asked by Arwen Mannonen to do a small garden in a section of her Project Hope sim. I decided to ask a few other "gardeners" if they'd be willing to contribute and was gratified by their openhearted support of this project.

It's just a small garden with sound for people involved in Project Hope to sit, talk with families or friends or just be alone in beauty. I'd like to thank the following artists for their kindness and generosity in helping to make A Garden Of Hope:

Trill Zapatero: for her painting "Rebirth of the Goddess (sun-moon-lake)"

I am grateful to have such creative and generous friends in Second Life. On behalf of myself, Arwen and Project Hope, thank you. And ty Arwen for the chance to do something for others.

Miso - great photo! You must have waited for hours till the SL wind blew that moth particle exactly in front of soror's tree:) As you know, I was in need of healing and hope some time ago in RL so I am especially happy to help others in a situation that is so familiar to me. Thank you for the opportunity. XXX
